Sitting front row during designer fashion shows is both a privilege and a responsibility. As you get a closer look at the garments, you get to show off the outfit you've been planning for weeks. To keep composure (and by that I mean having a straight face unless you want to be photographed looking out of place) also becomes part of the catwalk front row experience.
With the limits of the pandemic forcing designers to make their presentations go virtual, fashion TikTok mimics the coveted seats as a fun exercise while in quarantine. Whether you're looking for pure entertainment or serious fashion inspiration, take notes from these content creators who easily make it look like their actually sitting front row.
